Do you have a copy of Spiderman Ultimate Edition?

 

Yes bro. I deliberately didn't play the 2018 version after the puddlegate incident even after buying it day 1. Mumbai has wayyy better puddles in RT

Was it packed well?

Just dumped in a bigger amazon box. No bubble wrap/air bag.

Same lol. I'm constantly looking down at the controller to switch weapons in gears.

 

Also, the keys are bit too clicky for my taste. Another thing to get used to I suppose.

For me the XSX box was intact but the outer brown box was basically just hanging on to its life by its last threads. Was fully of bumped-in holes, tape almost torn, almost nil paper inside. For a moment I thought whether I should return it then and there, but then realized that means no XSX for a long time :P So took the risk assuming I will lay it onto msft/amazon later on if something goes amiss.

 

Wtf did they do with the box :lol:

A bit late to the discussion, my only problem with the Xbox controller is the color and position of 'X' button.

 

It's symbol and color is same as the 'cross' button in dualshocks but acts as 'square'. Multiple times I have pressed 'A' when 'X' prompt comes up.

 

There should be some common standard for coloring of face buttons across Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo.

I know enough has been said about Quick Resume, but it still wows me.  Being able to jump to a race in Forza or start right where I left off in Doom is just insane even after a cool boot. 

I feel like I've started enjoying the games a lot more. I normally game for an hour or two tops and removing the load time barrier is a god send to me. Switching between the games too. Everytime I got tired of Doom, I could instantly switch to FH4.

I really hope PS5 does something similar too.

You'll get used to it, after a few days it'll be second nature and you will switch between controllers without issues.

From a hardcore shooter game to racing game, huge mismatch for me. 

 

Anyway, it's a wonderful feature but at the moment for many it's not very useful unless you're waiting for someone to jump through games. But quick resume from boot up is a savor.

Games need to support this quick resume stuff right? It's not there automatically for all games? Asking because my son's playing megaman 11, and it doesn't really have a save system so he was depending on quick resume but it starts off from beginning every time.

Yeah. In my experience games with always online functionality like BL2 for eg. don't play nice with QR. I personally just quit most games like even FH4 which give random session errors instead of QR. But games like Fenyx play absolutely great with it.
